The ashes of tier brave.
So 'neath their parent turf they rest,
Far from the gory field.
Borne to a Spartan mother's breast,
On many a bloody shield;
The sunshine of tnelr native sky
Smiles sadly on them here,
And kindred eyes and hearts watch, by.
The heroes' sepulchre.
Rest on, embalmed and sainted dead,
Dear as the blood ye gave:

' The herbage of your grave! , ,
Nor shall your glory be forgot .
W'hlje fame her record keeps, ,:.
Or honor points the hallowed spot

In deathless song shall tell.
When many a vanished age hath flown,
, The story how ye fell:

Shall dim one ray of glory's light
That gilds your deathless tomb.

..fflHi: BIVOUAC OF THE DEAD
I Is one of the most beautiful of
Iall poetic tributes , to the
fallen hero. -It tells In the
, most simple, yet In the moat
exultant way, of the appreciation and
the, glory of those who for their coun
try rest in the "deathless tomb." There
is no poem in the English language
more often- .quoted npon the recurring
celebration in honor of the nation's dead
and the simplicity and beauty, or us
linos, as well ' th sentiment the
represent, are destined to, be everlast
ing. v . . ; '.v. . , -
This beauUful tribute to the soldier
dead was written by Colonel Theodore
O'Hara,- the poet, journalist and sol
djer. No one was mora -thoroughly
fitted for the writing of such lines, for
O'Hara spoke from experience, the ex
perience that comes with the apprecia
tion' of the Just deserts to those who
have offered up their lives for their
country, for he himself bad Jived the
Ufa of a soldier, and knew fujl well all
that must be sacrificed and endured
before rest Is finally secured on "fame'4
eternal camping fwwwa,' Wf'iiTf
O'Hara served through the Mexican
war as captain In tba regular army.
Being breveted major on the field for
gallantry; he took . 'part. In 185i, in
Lopes'a first expedition to liberate
Cuba. At this time he held a colonel's
commission, and was severely wounded
at Cardenas. O'Hara also' participated
in Walker's filibustering expedition to
Central America, and was one of the
soldiers of fortune of that episode, ; -.-
He anbsequenUy edited, with marked
ability, several southern newspapers,
among which were the Mobile Register
and: the Louisville Times. During the
war. of the rebellion. O'Hara. served in
the Confederate army, and when the
war was brought to a close he held the
commission of chief of staff to General
John C Breckenrldge. r t. ";
" His 'celebrated poem printed above
was written, and read by O'Hara in
1817, on the occasion of the reinterment
of bis comrades-in-arms, the soldiers
of Kentucky, who had fallen . In the
Mexican war, j principally at Buena
Vista,, and whose remains werejsrought
home by the state ' of Kentucky and
burled with high military, honors in a
lot set apart for them in the Frankfort
cemetery., . . '.1--'.''.-'
O'Hara died in Alabama several years
after the Civil war was closed, and the
legislature of Kentucky caused hi .'e
mains to be brought home to Frankfort
and reinterred In the State cemetery
beneath-.the shadow of an Imposing
shaft erected by the state to the mem
ory of the heroes, whoso valor was so
grandly sung In. "The Bivouac of the
Dead." .. . t ..
Although written by a southerner this
famous poem has been so much appre
ciated in the north, in fact in every sec
tion of the country, that the national
government has disposed, at Intervals
along the driveways and paths at the
Arlington National cemetery, near
Washington, metal tablets Inscribed
with some of the; most beautiful and
soul stirring extracts from this much
admired poem.i
Lines from this poem are also found
frequently Inscribed unon the tomb
stones of eminent soldiers In the south-,
and it Is on the table of the "Roll of
Honor The Dead in National Cema
teriea." a work published by the gov
eminent It was originally called-"Ken
tucky's Dead."
Theodore O'Hara was the son of an
Irish exile, and was born in Danville.
Ky.. In 1820. He was educated at St.
Joseph's academy,, at Bardsboro. where
he taught Greek to the younger classes
while finishing his senior course. He
read law, andxis appointed a clerk in
the treasury' department at Washing
ton in whloii Bervlca' he was employel
at the time of the breaking out of the
Mexican war
After the war he retired to a planta
tion in Alabama, where he died on June
S, -1867. - He wrote several other poems,
the' best known of which Is "The Old
Pioneer." Thevbest among hie poems,
following' "The Bivouac of the Dead

" 'Tl the old,, old story, one man will

And the other blind to the present need,
Will sea with the snlrit s eve. T
You may grind their souls In the self
same mill,. -You
may blind them heart and brow
But the poet will follow the rainbow
still,
And his brother follow the plough."
O'Hara was fond of adventure, of
daring disposition and full- of restless
energy; richly endowed with gifts of
mind and heart. He was even genial
